She is a CEO by George Chapman novel Chapter 204

Interrupted by Eduard. Spencer kept his smile on his face, withdrew his hand calmly, and said, "You guys have fun tonight."

"Of course." Eduard smiled. "Mr. Davies, excuse us, then. Lucia, Mr. Gallagher is over there. Let's go over and say hello." After saying that, Eduard took Lucia away without any hesitation.

Spencer looked at their backs, his eyes dark with an unfathomable emotion. Other guests soon gathered around him. Spencer then collected his thoughts and put on a fake smile to deal with them.

Soon after Eduard and Lucia arrived, Arthur and Juliana stepped into the venue.

After another month, Juliana's belly became bulging and she looked much plumper, but in front of everyone, she still behaved like a happy woman doted on by Arthur.

Arthur led her to say hello to Spencer and then took her to a quiet corner. Seeing fewer people around her, Juliana withdrew her arm that was linked with Arthur's, and lowered his head in a daze.

Arthur looked at her resignedly. It had been more than a month. As if to punish him, Juliana did not talk to him unless it was necessary, and hardly mentioned the baby to him. She would ask the housekeeper to take her to the hospital to prescribe medicine only when she was uncomfortable from morning sickness, but the housekeeper would certainly tell him, and in the end, he would be the one that took her to the hospital.

"Julia, what would you like to eat?" Arthur asked with concern tonight when Juliana hadn't eaten anything because she was sick.

Juliana looked askance at Arthur and kept silent.

Arthur sighed and asked the passing waiter to bring her a piece of cake. When the waiter handed it to Juliana, she did not even reach out to take it. Looking embarrassed, Arthur could only take the small plate.

After he dismissed the waiter, he said to her, "Julia, what do you want from me?"

"You can't give what I want, so why ask again?" Juliana said coldly.

Juliana's words excluded the possibility of communication between them. Arthur chose to keep quiet. When he quieted down, Arthur began to look around the venue again, searching for that familiar figure.

Suddenly, Juliana beside him spoke, "As expected, you're looking for her again."

Arthur froze for a moment. Perhaps even he did not notice that he would do it so naturally. Then Arthur turned to Juliana and said.

"Julia, why do you have to do that?"

'You know I love her uncontrollably. Why do you have to ask for something that I can't give you?'

"Why do I have to?" Juliana let out a bitter laugh and sighed. "Yes, I don't have to. But I can't help being jealous even if I know you don't love me."

After she finished speaking, Juliana hung her head low, as if she was shrouded in a haze that could not be dispersed.

Arthur was frustrated to see her like that, but he could not make up a lie to comfort Juliana. The two quieted down again, but Arthur was in a more depressed mood now.

Arthur could not find Lucia because she was talking with Eduard and others, who blocked Arthur's view. Lucia, of course, noticed that Arthur was looking around for her.

Lucia had noticed it as soon as Juliana and Arthur entered the venue, but she had to force herself to look away, so that she didn't have to see Juliana leaning against Arthur.
